Takuma Co., Ltd. announced the successive order receipts by the Takuma group, KAB Takuma GmbH (Berlin, Germany) of an RDF (Refuse-Derived Fuel) fired power plant and Bioener ApS (Copenhagen, Denmark) of a biomass power plant respectively, following the order receipt of an EfW plant for Cornwall Authority in the U.K. by Takuma HQ. This generated an order volume for the current term of approximately 36 billion JPY on a consolidated basis as of November in Europe.

[1] Business Strategies in Europe |
|
|
|
As one of the prescriptions for a decrease in demand of domestic public works, our group has retained the corporate vision
of an expansion of the overseas business and has been striving to implement infrastructure development to realize such a goal.
Particularly in Europe, movement toward promoting EfW (Energy from Waste) plant construction as a countermeasure to offset
greenhouse gas emissions based on the EU directive has appeared in concrete form in each country, so that a market on
the scale of 10,000 to 12,000 tons/day throughout the year (equivalent to around 300 billion JPY) is estimated, simply for EfW alone.
With this in mind, the Takuma group has been focusing on investing management resources into overseas operations,
including launching overseas affiliated companies in Denmark and Germany, while reinforcing the lineup of the offshore business.
As a result, last September, Takuma received an order for an EfW plant in the U.K. - as the first Japanese incinerator manufacturer
in Europe, followd by the second order receipt in the U.K. in October this year.
The first order receipt of our overseas affiliates in Denmark and Germany respectively consolidated the operating base of
the Takuma group as well as established a market position competitive enough with Europe-based plant manufacturers.
We would like to develop the European business as one of the pillars of our group operations through promoting localization
for further order receipts by the group.
We intend to win order receipts of 70 to 80 billion JPY on a consolidated basis in the European market within the three year period 2006 to 2008.
